2 Penalty to the Force for the Brumbies going over the top, hoofed down into Brumby territory by O’Connor.
1 An open start here, with the Brumbies running the ball back rather than opting to clear and they win an early penalty, but Toomua has missed touch!
0 A late change for the Brumbies, Mitchell Chapman is in for Rocky Elsom who has withdrawn with a hamstring niggle.
0 Welcome to the Members’ Equity Stadium in Perth for the second match of the 2010 Super 14, a humdinger of a derby between the Brumbies and the Force, somewhat shorn of its edge by the late withdrawal of ex-Force pivot Matt Giteau from the Brumbies side. But as with any Aussie derby, it’s going to be fiercely-fought and with the likes of James O’Connor and Stirling mortlock on show there’s no lack of running on either team. The action is moments away…
Matt G speel nie, nog beseer ?
3 All penalties thus far as the Force chase down Ashley-Cooper under a high ball but pile over the top at the tackle.
5 Six phases of Force possession come to an end with a Brumbies scrum as the ball comes loose at the back of a ruck.
OK, Irish dummy No 1 and Local Dummy No 2…. check your mail….
Puma, I used your Password as supplied by you… so it’s Username: Puma and THAT Password…
6 Shpherdson pinged for folding in at a scrum and O’Connor kicks the Force into a handy position.
Hulle het vroeer die week gese Matt G is uit due to besering
52
Weet jy waar om die spanne te kyk, updated regularly. Right here, on top. Under TEAMS.
9 Brilliant goose-step and break by Lealiifano! Haring away, into the Force 22 but he runs into a blind corner and is bundled into touch.
12 Stirling Mortlock is on 999 points for Super Rugby as he nails the conversion! 7-0!
11 Lealiifano looking really dangerous here, gets go-forward ball, then Mortlock slips it inside to Alexander and the prop is storming forward! In to Lealiifano, a fabulous pop off the ground by him and Valentine is home! TRY BRUMBIES! Brilliant stuff!
Brumbies 7 / ZIP
My prediction is Brumbies by 6…. I think I am way too conservative
14 O’Connor and Toomua both try chip and chase with little success, but the teams are both going for enterprise thus far. Brumbies get a penalty at a scrum for prop binding.
BiDiBiDi, het jy al geregistreer vir onse kompetisie… huh??
Kom, kom, kom!!
16 Here’s a funny one! George Smith is penalised for – and I quote: ‘moving’. What actually happened is that he moved too early after a kick by Toomua. O’Connor lines this up.
GBS – hehehe put in my pics. See not as dumb as you think.
